"Fairfield County is home to many fitness facilities and leading trainers who are setting the bar in exercise and healthy living. What we felt was missing when we decided to create Oxygen was an opportune facility that brings both together under one roof, " said Koch. "Being a member of Oxygen eliminates the need or want for multiple boutique memberships in order to obtain optimal results from specialized indoor cycling, kick boxing, boxing, yoga, Barre technique classes and personal training instructors."

At Oxygen, all-access members will be partnered with a fitness concierge who will develop a customized regimen, assist in setting fitness goals, monitor progress and serve as ongoing support and motivation. Exercise enthusiasts will experience private, group and dynamic training classes. Members will also benefit from the latest generation in cycling bikes, as well as state-of-the-art cardiovascular, strength and weight equipment. The cycling room is outfitted with tiered seating, while the main cardio studio has a built-in Balazs Track System, allowing the open space to transform into a full-blown boxing studio.

The facility will be open from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, Friday from 5 a.m. to 7:30 p.m., Saturday from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sunday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m.
